Some pedophiles are very motivated and lobby groups, political parties are created to defend their 'rights', seminars are held that seek to normalize that behaviour, eminent professors and personalities defend them. It is now de bon ton to defend them because they are more and more considered as a 'sexual minority' whose rights are being trampled on!
The situation strikes me as absurd, and similar to the whole 'psychopathy is biological therefore I shouldn't be found guilty' approach. Yes, psychopaths can't change being psychopaths, which means they should be identified and segregated if possible. The same should go with pedophiles. You could even say something like, "Yes, pedophilia is a sexual orientation (or whatever), which means you can't change it, which means you should be segregated and kept away from children at all times."
